Beginning softly and then increasing in both volume and texture, this setting of CRUSADERS' HYMN is exciting and confident. A broad section appears with a malleted-bass line in eighths before moving to a strong chordal passage. The ending returns once again to a soft dynamic and reflective mood. 62 measures in length, this piece is scored in A Major, D Major, and G Major.
